A recent addition to our spring pistol arsenal comes this rather customized looking 1911 from TSD. On the surface it has a pretty flashy appearance and some cool features but after testing this tricked out pistol we found that it backed up its looks with some wicked performance.

Capable of punching a .2g BB out of the muzzle at 220 feet per second, the TSD M1911 Tactical registers at the upper end of the spring pistol power scale and will send a soda can toppling. However, things really start to get interesting when you look at the pistols breech and notice that it is equipped with an adjustable hop-up system. This very unique feature enables this pistol to fire a range of BBs weighing from .2g all the way up to a .28g with deadly accuracy.

The slide on the TSD M1911 has such a nice gun metal finish that you might tap on it before you realize that it is actually not metal. The pistol does have a good selection of metal parts which include the barrel bushing, trigger, magazine release, thumb safety, rear sight and mainspring housing. Its overall weight comes in at a nice 1.25 lbs and it feels as solid as a rock. It features a fully adjustable rear sight and a railed frame for adding a laser sight or flashlight.

purchased all 4 in the set.... liked the way they looked! performance for a springer is above average. they will leave a mark for the lightly clothed. very accurate and easy operation. lots of metal parts and the weight is balanced. like previous review... one of the best spring guns you could have!
price is right. as always shorty's reputation, e-nuff said!!!
buy, play, enjoy!!!!
